Erin Alanson uses iClicker Assignments during asynchronous, recorded class sessions

“I value opportunities to weave reflection into my classes, but during an asynchronous class session this is much harder to do. Previously, I would ask students to pause the video and reflect on a question I posed, but had no idea whether they did it or what they thought. I love being able to review their responses and understand how my students are thinking about the questions posed. iClicker Assignments is very easy to use, and my students report that it makes asynchronous classes more engaging.”
— Erin Alanson, Assistant Professor & Director of Multidisciplinary Curriculum Initiatives, University of Cincinnati
